Tonight as I turn to You in prayer,
I know You've been patiently waiting here.
While I have gone on my heedless way
With scarcely a thought for You today.
Forgive me dear Lord for slighting You.
It is not that I really wanted to.
I've been so busy with my own affairs,
I thought You'd wait for my nightly prayers.
But I know You were helping me anyway
With every decision I made today.
You were here as I turned the clocks ahead,
And You're near as I'm kneeling by my bed.
I thank You now for your faithful care
And Your presence when I am unaware.
In Jesus name I pray.Amen

Joyce, this was beautiful and a reminder that no matter how busy we get in life, He is always will us, caring for, guiding and loving us.

I so enjoyed your words, Marti

(smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, He indeed always has time for us all, all we need to do is ask when we need His shoulder and He will always come, just as He will grace our lives with Love every step of the way! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is timeless in beauty! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jouce, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Joyce:  You have voiced what so many of us experience.  We get so involved in daily activities that we are not always thinking of Him.  fortunately, He is always thinking of us!

Joyce,

What a wonderful prayer of recognition given to our Lord.  Oh my gosh, don't we get busy doing just everyday things of life.  Running here and running there.  I too am so grateful for those quiet times spent on my knees before the Lord like you have expressed here.  Again, your prayer is so down to where we're at and true to our everyday life.  Thank you for sharing and GOD bless you.  -Bob
